Honest Work

This is not a work in progress. It is the final product, and the promise is simple: to give you the best show of your entire life. Kevin Gregory Krieger will try anything to please you in this full hour of high-octane improvised performance. There are no props, no cues, and no framework. This is mind, body and soul against the ticking clock. It is honest work.


“Krieger rides that line of high-energy comedy and earnest truth that makes each moment refreshing...the performers’ guts are on display but nothing is off limits to laugh at, making Krieger a sacrificial lamb.”

-Pearls Before Swine


Kevin Gregory Krieger is a comedian and director based in Los Angeles, CA. Combining clown, standup, sketch and improvisation, his live performances have taken him to stages across the region, including Pasadena’s Civic Center Auditorium where he was featured on NBC’s America’s Got Talent. Under the tutelage and direction of John Gilkey (Cirque Du Soleil), Kevin performed in the critically-acclaimed improvisational clown ensemble The Murge, which LA Weekly dubbed, "Spontaneous theater of the absurd…LA’s craziest improv show.” Kevin would go on to train in the Idiot Workshop pedagogy and teach for the workshop for over a decade, cultivating his voice as a director and fostering the burgeoning clown community in Los Angeles. In 2023, Kevin directed Claire Woolner’s solo show "A Retrospection” which was called “captivating throughout” by The New York Times and went on to win Best of Hollywood Fringe. Kevin is currently touring his own solo show, Honest Work, a one-hour improvisation with a simple goal - delivering the greatest show you’ve ever seen. Kevin co-owns Public Displays of Altadena where he operates his very own workshop, Plain Clothes Clown.
